New Title for 2.0?

I was thinking of this since I woke up this morning and was killing Opo-opos in the Muy-Tuy Cellars. Say you didn't get into the Legacy beta (or whatever it is), but you want to show new members you were here, in 14, before patch 2.0 came out?

Just like with Legacy, SE could say 'if you had an active subscription since (enter a date here) when 2.0 comes out you will automatically receive (title here)'

The title would be only for those who had an active subscription pre-2.0, and would be for everyone no matter what payment plan you have, to make it fair for all.

I was thinking 'Pilgrim of Eorzea' would be a appropriate title but I want to hear what ideas you guys would have. We can't let those who got into Legacy have all the fun, now can we? 8D

It was only a suggestion, I thought it was a good idea....

This is exactly what the Legacy program was intended to be. You just get a chocobo instead of a title. :)

If you missed out on Legacy status because you just joined the game, that's unfortunate, but could have been easily avoided.

Well basically it is a good Idea.. but i highly doubt we will see something like that. MAYBE we will get something from finishing the "Imperial Questline", which could be an indicator.

We've been told a long time ago that people who played through the 7th Umbral Era content were going to receive something unique to them in 2.0 and it's been a waiting game ever since.

I hope it's not something as simple as a title because I for one would never use it.

Something beside the Legacy-Chocobo?

Actually I took a break because of my computer and had no idea that they were doing the Legacy thing until it was over with, so if I knew beforehand I would've joined in a heartbeat.

I only thought of this because it isn't really fair to people like me (who have really sucky computers that crap out on you) that had no chance of joining Legacy have nothing to show they were here before everything changed around (minus the Onion helm but anyone can buy the CE so it's not really something unique).

The legacy chocobo and whatever we'll receive from the 7th Umbral Era are two separate things. I'm not sure where everyone got this idea from.

I know they're two separate things. I didn't KNOW we could get something for finished the 7th Umbral Era quest line.

Maybe the Flying eye-mount or the Dragon-mount they showed back in the day. O_O

But you can get something to show for it.
The Goobbue mount is a pre 2.0 mount only, actually, once 1.23 hits you will no longer be able to get one, so if you have yet to pick up yours, better do so now.

I grinded for that, but I rarely use it now that I got my chocobo.
I guess you're right. I just wanted to share an idea I had, that's all.

The title can be "believer in fifteen," since they're renaming this Final Fantasy XV.

I think it is a great idea. There is absolutely no effort in creating the title and shows the game's veterans. I say "Sure, why not?".

All it'll take is probably like..5 minutes to come up with a proper title and BAM, just put it in when they launch 2.0. -shrug-

Looks like a 10 a line and a 5 to me. 10+5=15.

Yoshi said its a I, just looking different since he wanted to make clear that 2.0 will be different.

So XIV = X|V = 14

And | is not +

The | in X|V is more something like 1337

Oh good Grief, you guys argue with just about anything. It will be what it will be but I can tell you right now it WON'T be XV because for 1 they said they don;t want XIV to go down in flames.. Changing it to XV won't solve it.. and people will wonder what happen to XIV? :/.

I support this. A title of some sort for everybody.

I like the idea, and it's not complicated to automatically give players a title without doing a quest. Or simply adding a new NPC for it with a small piece of text (like the gobbue).

"of the 6th Astral Era."
"Dalamund's Survivor"

...or something else.

He went so far as saying pre-2.0 characters would undergo some kind of a physical change, and that just by looking at them you would be able to tell if they had been there during the events of Dalamud or not. Still no idea what it will be though.

He even said that some NPCs will address you differently depending on whether or not you were present during the catastrophic events.

Yes this is what I was referring too. Thank you for remembering the details because I totally couldn't. I even went looking for the source interview but I really can't be bothered to look for that long.

Maybe an Arrow to the knee?

But actually im curious what kind of change that would be.

I'm glad to see this thread hasn't died or the idea hasn't gotten shot down as much. And I'm glad to see some of you actually like the idea.

See, I don't even pay much attention to the interviews, where did he say that about pre-2.0 characters looking different?

I wish I could say I was surprised that so many people took you seriously, but this the ffxiv forums, so not so much.

I think the title should be "I played FFXIV 1.0 and all I got was this lousy title"

I think its pretty fair that all active accounts before 2.0 get a title.

Something classy like "Had nothing better to do".
